Down by the seashore on St. Croix

Lives a dark California boy

Layin’ in the sand soakin’ in the sun

He never ever had so much fun


The sun comes up and it shines all day

Makes me warm then it goes away

The wind blows gently it’s a lovely breeze

Playin’ in the palm and banana trees


Lai, lai, lai, lai, etc.


Calypso girls and friends so fine

Give such joy to this life of mine

The old men and ladies and the children too

Make me want to share this life with you


Lai, lai, lai, lai, etc.


The waves break gently on the sandy shore

How could I ever want for more

But some how I miss you in this great beauty

And how I wish you’d come and share this life with me


Lai, lai, lai, lai, etc.


Coconut, banana, pina colada, etc.

Lai, lai, lai, lai, etc.


One more time!


Coconut, banana, pina colada, etc.

Lai, lai, lai, lai, etc.

ALREADY DEAD

 Already Dead - 1982 https://soundcloud.com/timrohr/track-13?in=timrohr/sets/love-remembered-tim-rohr-and-dominic-macaller-1981&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing Okay, so she’s left and you’re alone But you just can’t make her go away And her eyes still pierce you to the bone And you sit and waste another day You pray though you don’t know if you’re heard No miracles, no faith, and no belief And prayer seems wasted on the wind While you sit face to face with grief You tell yourself it’s not so bad And you close your eyes and try to sleep But it makes you sick to fool yourself Cause the memory still cuts you deep Somehow you make it to the morning And the sun makes it clear that she is gone And the day sings dirges of depression As you write yourself another song Now that you’ve lost your whole world What have you to say for yourself You knew you would lose eventually Do I hear you blaming someone else You got to shake this from your head Thoug

DRAGON SONG

 Dragon Song - 1982. "Fur Gianna"  https://soundcloud.com/timrohr/track-6?in=timrohr/sets/love-remembered-tim-rohr-and-dominic-macaller-1981&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing Well I didn’t mean to leave you and i don’t know why i did.  Just what it was that bought me here, was it something that is said?  I couldn’t really keep you, and i knew i wouldn’t try.  Better first to leave you dear than to watch our lovin’ die. But I’m a long way from home, and i got lovin’ on my mind.  Don’t think that i don’t miss you cuz i do.  And if you’re all alone please think of me sometime,  Cuz all i really wanted was just you. Faded blue jeans, silken gown, i wouldn’t really care.  If i could see my true loves eyes run my fingers through her hair.  With a smile and a laugh I’m sure I’d see the dragon in her eyes.  That’s why i had to leave you dear, i knew you had to fly. But I’m a long way from home, and i got lovin’ on my mind.  Don’t think that

TWO FRIENDS

TWO FRIENDS - 1981 https://soundcloud.com/timrohr/track-5?in=timrohr/sets/love-remembered-tim-rohr-and-dominic-macaller-1981&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing   I sit this morning, my gaze upon the ocean, Looking at that ship across the sea. Wondering where she’s going, wondering where she’s been, Wondering if she’ll ever remember me. Our time together was never quite enough. The days they came and went too soon. But she left her love in side of me forever. It let me know this afternoon. A friend like him, I’ve never had before. Didn’t even know what friendship was. Till i discovered another part of me, In a friend that loved me just because. I can’t forget the night that i left you. I must have cried a thousand miles. And i got to learn to live my life without you, But i guess that’s gonna be a while. I guess that’s gonna be a while
